My Boracay Escapade
*The First Time…
My Boracay Escapade was so unplanned. My house mates had already planned on going to boracay to celebrate our friends birthday. But they didn't told me that until it was 2 weeks before our trip. I got excited when they told me but a little bit left behind for not knowing in advance. Going to boracay without any preparations would be hard. Boracay was miles away from Makati and I had to take a plane to get there. I got hesitant at first. Unplanned trip would cost more than what you think. Flight's rate will cost less than a thousandths if I get booked like two to three months before the trip. But that didn't happened. Because of short notice, I got booked two weeks before. And that costs me less than P3000.00 ( back and forth trip ). Aside from that, we had to give a P2000.00 contribution for the other expenses.
We all know that Boracay was the most visited tourist spot here in the Philippines. And anything, even borrowing money just for this trip, can't stop me from going.
For the first timers like me. Don't you know that riding on a plane for the first time got me more excited than going to boracay? Well it really intrigues me what to feel especially when the plane’s ready for take off.
Here we come Boracay.
*The Trip..
We left home four hours before our flight. Traffic might get us late and also there are some things to be done before boarding. A friendly reminder guys, be sure to bring your flight tickets and one valid id. For your hand carry bag, be sure that it would only weigh 7 kilos exactly. More than 7 kg will be paid. Also expect for delayed flights.
*Welcome..
Our flight from Manila to Aklan was 8pm, we had an hour delayed so we departed at 9 to 9:30pm. My first time dilemma was answered when finally the plane started taking off. I want to laugh at myself actually. I wont tell you guys what I feel because I want you all to discover it yourself. The trip took us 45 minutes to finally reach Aklan Airport.
*Ola Boracay!!
A van was waiting for our arrival to take us to the coast.The driver told us that the ride will took 2 hours so we decided to take a nap. After that we had to take a boat that will take us to the island finally. We reach Boracay Island at exactly 1am.
*The Moments..
The trip got us exhausted and tired. We settle our luggages at the hotel and take a walk for a while.
Early in the morning, we decided to take a look at the beach. I was amazed at the very fine white sand that the island had. Though I had visited other white beaches in my life. Boracay beach was different. Boracay has long white sand beach.
Aside from the beach, Boracay also offers different kind of restaurants to dine, fast food chains, bars, and even karindiryas.
You can meet Koreans, Americans, Chinese and other nationalities too. No doubt, Boracay was really popular not just here in the Philippines but also all over the world.
Our Boracay adventure last only for 2 days. I know it's short but we had to go to work too.
Another friendly reminders from me. First, make sure to plan your Boracay visit. You don't want to feel unsatisfied for this kind of adventure. Make sure you have save enough money for the trip. You don't want to got short right? Have fun. Enjoy the beach. Enjoy the view. Try anything you want to try. Bar hopping, pot smoking ( for adult only), forget your diet and eat like nobody's watching you. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy..
